Skincare Brand of the Year

The Organic Skin Co.

Part I:

It takes quite a bit to give a brand this kind of status here at The Beauty Closet but it’s time to take a look at one of my top favorite natural & organic skincare companies- The Organic Skin Co. and why this brand has landed this top spot! For starters, the company began in New Zealand by model and fashion designer Megan Douglas & her sister- now company CEO, Lisette Douglas. The company’s goal is to sell products that are not only comprised of organic ingredients but also offer up true effectiveness! As a result, they have come up with a collection of especially curated beauty products- everything from makeup to skincare and build-a-palette options for eyes, cheeks, & more :) Check out one of my top picks from The Organic Skin Co., below:

Clean Slate Holy Basil Cleanser

$20*

This really is a one-of-a-kind cleanser and it’s super difficult to compare it to any other I’ve tried! For starters, many organic and natural ingredients-based products that I’ve tried in the past often did match up their name-brand counterparts that often feature unwanted ingredients and high prices. When it comes to facial cleansers and washes in general, I tend to gravitate towards those that suds up or come in a foam option…so this was definitely a bit out of my comfort zone. With this brand though, I’ve really loved the products I’d given a chance on before so I thought that I’d give this one a fair chance as well and I’m so glad I did!

Not only do I love this creamy cleanser that deeply cleanses away excess dirt & oil, but it smells absolutely wonderful too! Infused with good-for-you ingredients like holy basil extract, sunflower seed oil, rosemary extract, honeysuckle extract, amla berry extract, and sweet orange & lemon essential oils- this awesome cleaner has a 99% natural ingredient composition. It won’t dry out your skin and the sweet orange oil aids in fighting acne-prone skin, irritation, and dryness, while the amla berry extract gives an extra boost of Vitamin C to the skin- promoting elasticity and reducing irritation! Vegan, cruelt-free, and even comes in recyclable packaging- with tons of organic & natural ingredients, it’s hard to go wrong with this cleanser from The Organic Skin Co. I’ve seen a huge improvement in my skin’s overall health, smoothness, and reduction in breakouts, since using this cleanser for over a week :0 I’m a huge fan and have made this my go-to daily cleanser! Comes in an easy-to-use, mess-free squeeze tube with a simple design and wood covered cap to complete the look and this one makes an awesome gift for any age or skin type :)
